<3 Admins. Thank you for all you do.

I'm puzzled as to why people think this is the forum to spam. They were at it again last night.

And I got one in PM. Someone out of the blue, asking if they could trust me. This girl, you see, has a dad with 6.5 million dollars in a bank in ivory coast, and just needs me to send her money to help get that money released, and then when that happens, she'll give me 1 million cash (or something like that, I didn't read it all). Sounds legit right?

Should be better, again, for now. They love striking while we're sleeping it seems.

That's some nice Nigerian-price-style spam right there. :P

The forums they pick are random, but usually I see it happen on the busier ones. Makes sense, I guess, over in crazy spammer-ville.

I dunno, I think the ones who spam the dead forums are smarter... whomever pays them has something to see.

That's just epic luck right there. :D

Seriously though, if spammers start PM'ing a bunch of you please forward to PM(s) to myself, Calthine or Kaolian, and we'll see what we can do about it.

THe PM spam limiter function at very least does seem to still be working. So that shouldn't be as major a problem as it might otherwise be.
